Content

PT-care 4 consists of 2 courses of 5 EC that are interwoven with each other. Course 1: Neurology & rehabilitation 1 and course 2: skills and integration.
This course concerns Neurology & rehabilitation 1 and covers the practical part of PT-care 4.

Sufficient knowledge of and insight into the problems of the client, it is impossible for a physiotherapist to provide the client with high-quality care. The variation in symptoms among patients Without with neurological problems is considerable.
Patients with similar diagnoses can display very different clinical pictures. In order to provide assessment and treatment adequately and in a patient-specific fashion during the professional practice, it is indispensable for physiotherapists to have a wide knowledge of neurology. Through active participation in the practical classes we aim at professional growth in the execution of assessment and treatment skills of patients with central and peripheral neurological  problems. This part of the course will be examined as a performance assessment in which the student, a case under the teacher’s guidance, performs an assessment or treatment or some elements of the assessment or treatment. Skills for evaluation or treatment will be assessed formally.
